Goddamnit, I hate it so much when in-game stats are in the manga... And pokemon can know up to four moves?! I think Pika knows like fourteen and no one ever said a thing about that...Yeah, copying in-game mechanics in manga really makes me sick.But apart from my whining, yeah, i like the chater, it's pretty cool. Good job with translating it, thank you very much!

Oh, really? Pika knows Surf and Flash, two HM moves I doubt he forgot. It also knows Thunderbolt and Thunder, Toxic, Substitute, Iron Tail, MegaVolt and Volt Tackle. I could acknowledge the theory that Pokemon Association restricted number of moves that can be used in official Pokemon battles, it's the only explanation for this stupid game mechanic "only 4 moves at once" to remain in manga. It must be in the games to remain balance, but manga is supposed to make mechanics look more realistic, isn't it?
